Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef steak (round or cube steak)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 large Yellow onion (sliced)
- 1 large Bell pepper (sliced, any color)
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 14.5 ounces Canned diced tomatoes (with their juice)
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 Bay leaf
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the steak on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Dredge the seasoned steak in the all-purpose flour, coating both sides well.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. (You may need to work in batches based on the size of your skillet.)
Transfer the browned steak to the slow cooker.
In the same skillet, sauté the sliced onion and bell pepper for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant. Transfer the onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the slow cooker.
In a bowl, mix together the canned diced tomatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and dried thyme. Pour the mixture over the steak and vegetables in the slow cooker.
Add the bay leaf to the slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low heat for 6-7 hours, or until the steak is tender and easily falls apart.
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the Swiss steak over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles for a complete meal.
